    The only thing the English version is unclear about is whether the currently known issue only effects aquariums, or if it effects all furnishings. The other language versions make it clear that this issue will only effect aquariums. I'm seeing a whole lot of people who are confused and still think that this issue will effect all furnishings, and/or that it is an issue that currently exists (before 4.3). For most of my post all I'm doing is just re-wording what's been stated to try and help people who misunderstood things understand them better, since SE seemingly didn't do a good enough job of it themselves.

    Okay, fair enough, I am definitely editorializing when I imply that they might not go through with the fix. Their language clearly states that it will happen, but I feel like they couldn't be so monumentally stupid as to actually go through with it, and I let that feeling come through in my post. I apologize for adding to the confusion.

    If people want to be 100% safe, they should absolutely start making sure all of their furnishings aren't clipping through each other. There very well could be an unannounced hotfix after 4.3 that destroys everyone's furnishings. Personally, I think the odds of that are extremely low, and I'm not going to bother doing anything until we get more information.

    Someone mentioned the French version is more vague, like the English version:

    I had a look at the FR version of the notes (I'm French) to see if it's clearer in other languages.

    "Nous vous prions de ne pas reproduire ce problème, car les meubles occupant un même espace sont susceptibles de disparaître de façon permanente."

    It says: please do not reproduce this problem, as furniture ("meubles" means furniture in general, they don't narrow it to aquariums at this stage) which occupy the same space are likely to disappear in a permanent way.

    They straight forward talk about furniture occupying the same space ("meubles occupant le même espace"). I'm worried now because that could be anything.
    So while some, like German, specify, both English and French don't, which is why we're asking for clarification about exactly what is included.

    I appreciate that you're trying to calm panicked nerves, but everyone - including you - is just interpreting what's there and guessing at potential meanings... which is why we need this clarification and why we're asking for it to begin with!
